Jeanne Stephens' Funeral Expenses

11/19/2017 - 8:13pm

Jeanne had such a wide circle of friends...her beloved Fransiscan University, St. Gertrude Church, Madeira schools, dance/theater, LipSense. She fought cancer so hard and had such a great desire to live a long life as Chris' spouse and as a mom to their children. Unfortunately, those dreams were not to be fulfilled. Her unfailing trust in God throughout her many hardships is a beautiful lesson for all. Chris took such care of her and this took time away from his new employment for which we had all prayed. Death was not in her plan, and our help is now needed to assist in paying for her gravesite and funeral arrangements. Please give what you can.

Please keep in your prayers, Chris Stephens and family, after the loss of his wife, Jeanne Stephens. Jeanne was a devoted wife and mother to their children and an active member of our community.

To help with a funeral and other necessary household expenses, a GoFundMe has been set up in her name at the GoFundMe site below. This site may be broken at times.
If you would like to donate to the family via check or cash, please stop by the Parish office.

I am absolutely overwhelmed and humbled by the support each of you has shown to the Stephens family. They are so very grateful to have this burden relieved and wish they could personally thank each of you. So many donations, so many different amounts, but all representing the love so many have for Jeanne and her family. May God, who is never outdone in generosity, bless you each abundantly for both your monetary support and your prayers, which will continue to sustain the family in the weeks and months ahead.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!
Mary, comforter of the afflicted, pray for us
